Cause of Note 7 Explosions to be exposed On Sunday



At the risk of sounding dramatic we want to say-- this is the moment you have all been waiting for!

Remember the Note 7, the Samsung flagship phone that was supposed to blow the iPhone out of the water and be really cool and have everyone like it but instead literally blew up in people's faces? Yeah, that one, the flight risk, the security hazard, the one that cost Samsung billions after two global recalls.

Well it seems that we'll finally learn what caused the mishap. Samsung had earlier revealed that they were going to investigate the matter and give out their findings and it seems the time is soon.


The Korean company has announced that it will be holding a press conference to explain exactly what happened with its flagship phablet, and what it will be doing to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.

“Following several months of comprehensive investigations, Samsung executives will announce the cause of the Galaxy Note 7 incidents and quality enhancement plan during a press conference in Seoul, South Korea, on January 23, 2017 at 10am (KST)” said Samsung’s announcement of the conference.


The plan is for Samsung to use the conference to reveal its own findings and also that of “independent expert organisations who conducted their own investigation into various aspects of the Galaxy Note 7 incidents.”

It was further stated that the company will also use the opportunity to “unveil new measures Samsung has implemented in response to the incidents.”

The whole conference will be live streamed in the Samsung’s Newsroom, and will be simultaneously translated into English. 

So for those not in Korea, the streaming will be available on January 22 at 5pm (PST) in the US, and January 23 at 1am (GMT) in the UK, 12pm (AEDT) in Australia and for Nigeria it'll be at 2am.
